    1. This volume gathers articles that were inspired by the same modern anxiety that strives to bridge the gap between reason and spirit. We live at a time when culture is being redefined. Modernity has taught us to separate it from life and ignore the natural link between knowledge and inner experience. The challenge now is to recover this necessary connection, to fill the gap between knowledge and life, in order to define ourselves properly and derive appropriate tools for building a better world both inside and outside of us.

       The contemporary dialogue between science and theology could be a serious candidate to become such an instrument only to the extent that it is able to reach the depths of inner life. It is certainly meaningful that many of those who manifested an interest in this area are in search of the wisdom that comes from the spiritual traditions. As a matter of fact, the religious and mystical traditions always represented a comprehensive context for meditating upon and experiencing life.

       The volume includes the following articles:
